Chilly winds of December it’s been a year or so since Onai Asura and Hayate first arrived in the village, they were now almost fully grown.

Onai had finally decided to give James a chance but none of them still fully trusted humans they could never forget the past.

            The villages annual race was taking place to day Onai and Hayate were looking for Asura everywhere to go watch but he was nowhere to be found so they went without him.

They went and sat at the starting line when a husky trainer brought by his champion racers, the red husky noticed them sat on the edge and began towards them.

Onai was elsewhere thinking where Asura could have got too, Hayate nudged him with an expression of oh here me go Onai looked to see the dog.

“What are you outcasts doing here?” scoffed the Husky

“Oh I don’t know Fido, we’d thought we come out catch a little fresh air!” laughed Onai sarcastically

The husky snarled at Onai bearing his teeth, “whoa Onai check this out!” said Hayate

Onai looked at him cocking an eyebrow, the husky ran for Onai, pouncing on him pushing him back through the crowd, Onai got back up and snarled at the red husky his teeth were much bigger than his, “whoa Onai not the time or the place!” laughed Hayate pulling him away from the husky.

“Next time mutt!” shouted Kurt, Onai grew furious at that comment turned around darting towards the husky knocking him back out in the middle of the race track where everyone turned to see.

Onai loomed in on the husky, then looked to see all the people watching, Hayate came running in knocking Onai over.

“Look where just playing woof woof!”

“Kurt come here!” shouted the red huskies master, he got up a tottered off towards him.

Onai slumped back to the sidelines with his head down but the rage was still over coming his body. Hayate followed him off giving Kurt a sarcastic smile.

“Onai what were you thinking?”

“Nothing!”

“HE GUYS WHATS GOING ON!”

Both Onai and Hayate jumped out of their skins panting like hell.

“ASURAAAAAA stop doing that your like. Like a Phantom!” shouted Onai and Hayate in unison.

“Are you trying to give us a heart attack!”

“Phantom hmmm I like it!”

“What?”

He smiled “Phantom I like it!”

“Where have you been I was looking all over for you!” asked Onai

He cocked an eyebrow “I was umm!”

“Ahh never mind you’re here now, how did you find us anyway!”

“I saw you, idiot!”

“Oh that mind thing again!”

“No seriously I think I can see better now than when I actually could see!”

Onai smiled “well I’m glad for you!”

“What have you been doing!” Onai looked swiftly the other way

“Onai started a fight with that husky again!”

Phantom’s jaw dropped “did ya win?” 

“Phantom you’re just as bad as he is!”

“So ill take that as a no!”

“No, its not a no, Hayate stopped me from ripping that little GRRRR Hayate why did you stop me?”

“Cos you would have killed him, he’s not a wolf you could easily kill him!”

“Ye and?” said Phantom and Onai in unison

             Hayate rolled his eyes, “come on lets find a better place to watch or go home!” they both followed Hayate up on to a fence then on top of a roof of a house.

“I wanna show that stuck up dog that where better than him!” said Onai then standing up sliding down the roof and jumping off

“What are you doing, Phantom what is he doing?” he looked to where Phantom was sat he had also slid down the roof.

Onai appeared in the start up line.

“Hmmmm I swear I’ve seen this in a movie before!” said Hayate, he shrugged and climbed down too.

Phantom also appeared in the start up line along with all the other huskies and mullets, Onai looked in his direction and smiled, he smiled back then further down the line Hayate popped his head through the huskies.

“Hey do you mind where racing too!”

Phantom looked towards him and laughed along with Onai.

The Master stood at the sidelines pointing a gun in the air, “on your marks!”

All the competitors leaned forward.

The gun was fired and they were off the three wolves thundering down the road, much faster than the huskies, but out of nowhere Kurt appeared up at the front with the wolves. Onai heard that gunshot in his head again a flash back from the past, he stopped dead in the track.

“Onai what are you doing?” shouted the other two

He shook it off and charged up to the front again “nothing, can’t explain!”

They crossed the finish line together in front of Kurt.

Kurt shook it off and claimed he was too tired for the race today.

The three of them after the race walked back home, James opened the door for them.

“Onai here boy I got you a new collar since you umm killed the other!” he fastened a navy blue collar loosely around his neck so it just rested on his chest, “don’t wreck this one please Onai!” Hayate was given a sky blue bandana, and Phantom a scarlet red collar with a bell on!

Onai and Hayate started laughing

“Sorry but that’s the way it goes you always pop out of no where! Nah I’m just kidding!” James said pulling off the bell “there on loosely so you can just get out of them easily” he said with a sort of sad voice, he walked into the living room, Sakura came running from upstairs she stroked them on the head as she walked past into the kitchen.

The three of them followed into the living room then they heard the most beautiful sound!
